Termite Control for Owasso homes
Termites are active across Owasso, and homes with wood fences, decks, or landscape timbers touching the soil are at higher risk.
We serve all of Owasso (74055) in Tulsa County and Rogers County, including Smith Farm, Bailey Ranch, Stone Canyon, and the neighborhoods along Bird Creek. Our technicians work in these neighborhoods every week, so they know where problems start.
What you need to know
About termite control in Owasso
Eastern subterranean termites live in the soil under almost every neighborhood in the Tulsa metro. They travel up into homes through mud tubes and tiny cracks in slabs, then eat wood from the inside where you cannot see it.
Termite damage grows slowly, often for years, and most homeowners insurance policies do not pay for it. That is why a yearly inspection and a working termite barrier matter so much in Oklahoma.
Warning signs
Signs you need termite control
- Swarms of winged insects inside the house in spring
- Piles of small, equal sized wings near windows or doors
- Pencil wide mud tubes on the foundation or in the garage
- Wood that sounds hollow when tapped
- Bubbling or peeling paint and sagging floors
- Doors and windows that suddenly stick
Know the pest
Termite treatment options
| Type | What to know |
|---|---|
| Liquid soil barrier | A termiticide placed in the soil around and under the foundation. Termites that cross it die. Works fast and lasts several years. |
| Bait stations | Stations placed in the yard. Termites carry bait back to the colony and it wipes out the colony over time. Less drilling. |
| Spot treatment | Used for small areas such as a door frame. Not a full home solution. |
| Yearly inspection | Checks that the barrier is still working and catches new activity early. |
Our process
How we handle termite control
Free inspection
We check the foundation, garage, crawl space or slab edges, attic, and wood near the ground.
Explain the options
You see what we found and choose between a liquid barrier and bait stations, with a written price.
Treat
We trench and treat the soil, drill and treat through slabs where needed, or install bait stations.
Yearly checks
We return each year to inspect and keep your protection active.
Pricing
How much does termite control cost in Owasso?
| Service | Typical price |
|---|---|
| Termite inspection | Free |
| Liquid soil barrier | $500 to $2,500, based on linear feet of foundation |
| Bait station system | Quoted after inspection |
| Yearly renewal checks | Quoted with your treatment |
Most of the cost comes from the size of your foundation and how much drilling through concrete is needed.
Prevention
How to prevent it
- Keep wood, firewood, and lumber off the ground and away from the house
- Fix leaks and keep gutters flowing away from the foundation
- Leave a gap between mulch and siding
- Do not let soil touch wood siding or door frames
- Get an inspection every year, even if you see nothing
We only use EPA registered products and follow the label, as Oklahoma law requires. Tell us about kids, pets, fish tanks, or anyone with asthma and we will adjust the treatment.
